Diamond Turning
and Precision Machining
|
Built on
a foundation of mechanical engineering and machine design experience,
Colorado Precision offers single-point diamond turning and precision
machining services which are unsurpassed. |
A
long and continuing relationship with the National Laboratory
system as well as active membership in the American
Society of Precision Engineering assures that CPPI is always at the
forefront of precision engineering and design technology |
|
|
Using a modular
machine tool concept, we assemble diamond turning systems out
of our inventory of high-precision components, maximizing both
flexibility and precision. |
When matching
precision machining components (fixtures, drive systems, feedback,
metrology, tables/slides, tooling, etc.) to each specific project's
needs, well-defined limits do not really exist, however, here
are some estimates and historical experiences: |
Size |
Currently, we
have the ability to diamond turn a part up to 42" in diameter.
A recently turned part was 36" diameter. Larger parts would
be considered based on the individual project |
Surface |
Heavily dependent
upon part geometry, our diamond turned surface finishes can be
as low as 20Å RMS, as low as 5Å RMS with post-polishing |
Flatness |
As a general rule
of thumb, our slides are good to 1 microinch per inch of travel.
On a recent 17" square part, the flatness was 1/10 wave
at 633nm over a 4" segment. |
Geometry |
Our work is generally
in flat and spherical parts. We also have experience building
hyperbolics, parabolics and off-axis ellipses and would like
to discuss parts of any geometry |
